1.Launch Party Success
Firstly we'd like to thank all those that joined us at the Australian
Centre for Democracy and Justice launch party a few weeks ago. It was a
great success with about 80 people in attendance and helped us raise
some money to cover our start up costs.
Everyone seemed to have a great time and we look forward to a few drinks with you all sometime in the future.
